Guys who should be locked up or traded by September 1st

Created by: BCAPP
Team: 2020-21 Custom Team
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 14, 2021
Published: Apr. 14, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
There are probably others I'm not thinking of and some teams may do better than I guess: but essentially this is a list of good (Rackell), to very good/great (Hertl), to elite (Jones), and everything in between who are in their primes and approaching UFA on teams very unlikely to compete next year.

Their GM's need to have a sit down with these players and their agents in the summer and have a frank chat, do they want to commit to term because if they don't they should be traded for future pieces before the year even starts, as this upcoming year is unlikely to be a competing year, and the more time with the new team the more value (I'd argue this should have been done for some at TDL)

CF doesn't let publish with <10 players so I put guys on these teams who are UFA at the end of 2022, but are not necessarily in the above situation for reasons such as: they're not as good (such as Jenner or Miller), or the team is undecided what its doing re goalies (Columbus)

it is my dream that the sabres trade ristolainen and the first pick of the 2nd round for Rakell once Anaheim sees who is available after the friday night 1st round. (or before, after trading manson and having a spot to protect ristolainen)

My predictions for all of these players:

Traded in the offseason: Ekholm, one of CBJ goalies, Manson, Kuemper

Traded midseason (21-22)/hit UFA: Jarnkrok, Butcher, Tierney, Jenner, Fabbri, Rakell, Risto

Extended some time in the next year by current team: Jones, Forsberg, other CBJ goalie, Hertl

Seattle: Miller

If I'm the gm of the last group I think it's a mistake to the let the season start without tradinf or signing.

Well speaking for my own team id be shocked to see fabbri extended long term. Hes been good and they got him practically for free but looks like Steve's big piece to move at the next deadline. Its too bad I'd love to keep him in the middle 6 for a while longer.
